Electric field is defined as an area around a charged particle within which force is exerted on other charged particles. Additionally, the area around the electric charge in which the electric force or power act is called an electric field. Furthermore, Electric field (EF) sensor is a technique that allows computers and robots to identify, evaluate and work with objects in their area. Moreover, electric field sensor employs small metal electrode fixed to oscillator that produces high frequency alternating current. However, the characterization tests of electric field sensor are executed above frequencies in the range of 10 Hz to 10k Hz. Apart from it, the magnitude tests are made among 4 mV/m and 4 V/. Electric field sensor can sophistically assemble detailed images of any objects. Additionally, using this technology with other sensing methods it can intelligently navigate the environment. Moreover, electric field sensor do not identify non- conductive materials. Apart from that, electric field sensors measure atmospheric electric field at the earth surface and the fluctuations in the field strength.
